U.S. Bank v. Russell-Esposito

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Second Department
Mar 30, 2010
71 A.D.3d 1127 (N.Y. App. Div. 2010)

Opinion

No. 2008-10077.

March 30, 2010.

In an action to foreclose a mortgage, the defendant appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Rios, J.), dated October 15, 2008, which denied her motion, denominated as one for leave to renew and reargue, but which was, in actuality, one for leave to reargue her motion, inter alia, to enjoin the plaintiff from evicting her, which had been determined in an order dated May 9, 2008.

Sherreth F. Russell-Esposito, South Ozone Park, N.Y., appellant pro se.

Steven J. Baum, P.C., Buffalo, N.Y. (Heather A. Johnson of counsel), for respondent.

Before: Skelos, J.P., Santucci, Lott and Sgroi, JJ., concur.


Ordered that the appeal is dismissed, without costs or disbursements.

The Supreme Court properly treated the defendant's motion as one for leave to reargue, since the mortgagor failed to offer any new facts not offered on the prior motion ( see Karten v Alvarez Son Transp., Inc., 56 AD3d 528, 529). Rather, the defendant sought the same relief she sought on her prior motion, without proffering any new facts, arguing that the Supreme Court previously had overlooked or misapprehended, in effect, the law or facts ( see CPLR 2221 [d] [2]; Jones v Amiee Lynn Accessories, 38 AD3d 613). Thus, the appeal must be dismissed, as the denial of reargument is not appealable ( see Peralta v All Weather Tire Sales Serv., Inc., 58 AD3d 823; Jones v Amiee Lynn Accessories, 38 AD3d at 613).
